Starting August 5, 2008, S7 Airlines (Siberia Airlines) will operate flights from Koltsovo airport of Yekaterinburg to Adler airport of Sochi, the company’s press officer reports.

Starting September 2, 2008, a daily Yekaterinburg-Moscow flight will be introduced by the carrier. The plane will take off in Koltsovo airport of Yekaterinburg and arrive in Domodedovo airport of Moscow.

‘Until quite recently, Yekaterinburg was Russia’s only city with the population of over a million people that did not have any of S7 Airlines’ flights available. Apart from flights to Moscow and Sochi, the carrier is considering launching scheduled flights from Yekaterinburg to Novosibirsk and to Saint Petersburg,’ says S7 Airlines Deputy GD Anton Yeremin.
